Yes, we ordered the spare at the same time we originally ordered the car...it was put in the car at the factory when the car was built.....I have the 2LT/RS...the spare tire and wheel cost $150...

GM seems sold on the idea that making the spare tire an option on the Camaro in favor of inflator kits is the way to go. Pirelli differs in that opinion. Before you drive off the lot in that sweet new ride - consider asking for a spare. Maybe here is an opinion they will value:
Do You Care About Your Spare? “...Flat tires are so rare I'd rather not compromise the performance of any car I own just to avoid carrying a spare. But I don't ever want to be stranded, either, so for now, the space-saver spares strikes me as the best solution. But if you think otherwise, don't wait until a bitterly cold night to learn what's in your car's spare-tire well.” Csaba Csere Former Editor and Columnist The Steering Wheel Column Car and Driver |

I ordered, and received a spare tire also. The wheel is black. (Polished aluminum wheels on the ground). I went through a dry run yesterday. Removed the spare tire, and tools. But when I attempted to remove the jack...surprise! I do not know the secret. I was not going to force it.
Anyone have the combination? The sales lady does not know. In fact she asked for me to share the procedure when I learn it. Robert |
